My sons (ages 5 & 3 1/2) have celiac disease, they each have a celiac gene (from dad) and a wheat sensitivity gene (from me). They've had all kinds of symptoms which have cleared up since being gluten-free, but no biopsy. Hubby has had a difficult time accepting all of this (approx 2 1/2 yrs since initial diagnosis).

Well, he's (hubby) finally decided to go gluten-free!!! :D

He works in downtown Dallas and usually brings his lunch but does have many occassions where he has to go out for lunch for business.

I am compling a list but need some additional help. This is what I have thus far:

www.chickfila.com, Taco Cabana, Outback Steakhouse, Carrabbas, PF Chang's, Pei Wei, Flemings Steakhouse, McDonalds, Wendy's, First Watch, Chipotle, Jack in the Box, Denny's will bring out a list of stuff and go over it with you so you know just what is in every thing.

I will also be posting a similar request for downtown Houston - he travels there a lot.

Thank you very much!

I have to eat out more often than I like, and I live in Dallas, there are several options f)or him.

1) Chuy's on Knox-Henderson is very accomodating. If you ask the server, he will double check all ingredients. Chips and Nachos are OK, Enchiladas are OK (Handmade corn tortillas) make sure the sauce is not thickened with a roux.

2) El Chico has gluten free menu options-though I have not tested them yet

3) Kozy Kitchen, co-owned by a Celiac. Again, not tested website is Kozykitchen.net

4)Rockfish-had two great dinners this week. Today at lunch the chef came out to my table to make sure all was OK.

5) Cowboy Chicken on Greenville ave- Corn tortillas filled with white rotissirre (sp) chicken with the "light green/white" sauce. I have not tried it, but another member of the forum has had it.

6) If he is in Plano, Delicious n Fit is all gluten free

7) Free birds on Greenville also has all the allergens listed on their website

I hope this helps you. There is also a Chuy's in Houston, but I don't know where. Most of the above are chains so you might be able to search their sites for locations.

The above link helps me a lot.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin. In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began...

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications. Normally I am in favor of the formal diagnosis process, but if you've already figured out that you can't tolerate gluten and will likely stay gluten-free anyway, I wanted...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott. Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications. Normally I am in favor of the formal diagnosis process, but if you've already figured out that you can't tolerate gluten and will likely stay gluten-free anyway, I wanted to at least mention the possible negative sides of having a formal diagnosis. While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?
